CHICKEN AND DUMPLING CASSEROLE
When I made this dish, I was trying to figure out how to use my leftover roasted chicken. I was thinking on the lines of pot pie but instead using dumplings for the top. This casserole turned out delicious and makes a hearty meal. If you love dumplings like my family does, you'll love this dish. It's actually easy to make, and you can make it from scratch using ingredients you already have on hand.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Heat 2 tablespoons butter and olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add carrots, celery, and onion. Add 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder; season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir until starting to soften, about 3 minutes. Add chicken; cook until heated through, about 3 minutes more. Add frozen peas; cook until turning bright green, about 1 minute. Stir and remove from heat.
- Melt 1/4 cup butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat until bubbling, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add 1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons flour. Whisk quickly to remove all lumps, about 1 minute. Cook, whisking slowly, until gravy is thickened, about 2 minutes more.
- Whisk chicken broth into the gravy thoroughly. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining garlic powder and onion powder. Season with salt and pepper. Add the vegetable-chicken mixture; stir and pour into a 9x13-inch glass baking dish.
- Combine 3 cups flour, 1 cup milk, and 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon mayonnaise in a bowl. Add remaining milk gradually until mixture is sticky; you may have leftover milk. Drop spoonfuls of dumpling batter to cover the top of the filled baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven until dumplings are light golden brown, about 25 minutes.

The secret of this is not to stir anything. That's what makes your dumplings. When you dish it out, you have your dumplings on top. May want to use low sodium granules.

CHICKEN AND DUMPLING CASSEROLE
The aroma of the garlic and onion cooking together is wonderful and then add the basil and... well it just makes your mouth water. The basil in the dumplings is very different and a nice change. This is so easy to make. Pair with a nice glass of cold sweet tea and you're ready to go!

Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and texture to your casserole. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, and peas.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken is tough and dry. Cook it until it is just cooked through, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken reads 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use a thick and creamy sauce. This will help to bind the ingredients together and make the casserole more satisfying. A good option is to use a cream of chicken soup or a cream of mushroom soup.
- Add some herbs and spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the casserole. Some good options include thyme, rosemary, sage, and garlic powder.
- Top the casserole with a crispy crust. This will add a nice texture and flavor to the casserole. A good option is to use a mixture of bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese.
Conclusion:
Chicken dumpling casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken, and it is also a good way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. With a few simple tips, you can make a chicken dumpling casserole that is sure to please everyone at your table.
